    Trying to populate a BOM summary from a master materials list based on quantities entered

    I'm trying to find a formula (if one exists) to populate a BOM summary from a master materials list when I enter materials quantities onto the master list worksheet. Attached is a spreadsheet that includes two worksheets, worksheet 1 is the master materials list, and worksheet 2 is the desired result that I'm looking for. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I apologize in advance if this topic has been covered before, or if I've posted this to the wrong forum.Materials list-BOM sample.xlsx

    what you are looking for is essentially a filtered view...

    Check out the attachment, I've copied your sheets and have shown you 2 ways to do this. One uses a simple filter and the other is to use a pivot table.
